Young Leaders

The Young Leaders' Scheme is just one of the exciting programme elements in the Explorer Scout section. All leaders in the Beaver Scout, Cub Scout and Scout Section who are between the ages of 14 and 18 must be members of a Young Leaders Unit. They are Explorer Scouts who choose to devote a large proportion of their time in Scouting to service in another section.

The Young Leaders' Scheme helps Explorer Scouts to develop and grow as individuals. It allows them to make a valuable contribution to their community and give service to others. The scheme also helps them fulfil the service elements of their awards.

At Stenek District Explorers, you can take part in many Young Leaders training events to help you earn the badge and skills needed.

Young Leaders also works alongside the Duke of Edinburgh Awards.

Full details on the Young Leaders scheme and factsheets and documents can be found on the ScoutBase website.
